Abstract: One aspect of the present invention relates to heterocyclic compounds. A second aspect of the present invention relates to the use of the heterocyclic compounds as ligands for various mammalian cellular receptors, including dopamine, serotonin, or norepinephrine transporters. The compounds of the present invention will find use in the treatment of numerous ailments, conditions and diseases which afflict mammals, including but not limited to addiction, anxiety, depression, sexual dysfunction, hypertension, migraine, Alzheimer's disease, obesity, emesis, psychosis, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, inflammatory pain, neuropathic pain, Lesche-Nyhane disease, Wilson's disease, and Tourette's syndrome. An additional aspect of the present invention relates to the synthesis of combinatorial libraries of the heterocyclic compounds, and the screening of those libraries for biological activity, e.g., in assays based on dopamine transporters.
Claim: We claim:

1. A compound is represented by A: ##STR00280## wherein X represents CH.sub.2; Z represents O; m is 2; n is 1; y is 1; R.sub.1 is 4-trifluoromethylphenyl or3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl; R.sub.3 is H; R.sub.4 is 4-chlorophenyl; R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 are selected independently for each occurrence from the group consisting of H and alkyl; R.sub.8 and R.sub.9 are each H; any two instances of R.sub.5 and R.sub.6may be connected through a covalent bond; and the stereochemical configuration at any stereocenter of a compound represented by A is R, S, or a mixture of these configurations.

2. A compound is represented by A: ##STR00281## wherein X represents CH.sub.2; Z represents O; m is 3; n is 1; y is 1; R.sub.1 is 4-trifluoromethylphenyl or 3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl; R.sub.3 is H; R.sub.4 is 4-chlorophenyl; R.sub.5 andR.sub.6 are selected independently for each occurrence from the group consisting of H, OH and alkyl; R.sub.8 and R.sub.9 are each H; any two instances of R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 may be connected through a covalent bond; and the stereochemicalconfiguration at any stereocenter of a compound represented by A is R, S, or a mixture of these configurations.

3. The compound of claim 1, wherein said compound is a single stereoisomer.

4. The compound of claim 2, wherein said compound is a single stereoisomer.

5. A composition, comprising a compound of claim 1; and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

6. A composition, comprising a compound of claim 2; and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

7. A method of treating a mammal suffering from addiction, anxiety, depression, sexual dysfunction, hypertension, migraine, Alzheimer's disease, obesity, emesis, psychosis, analgesia, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, restless leg syndrome,sleeping disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, irritable bowel syndrome, premature ejaculation, menstrual dysphoria syndrome, urinary incontinence, inflammatory pain, neuropathic pain, Leschye-Nyhane disease, Wilson's disease, orTourette's syndrome, comprising the step of: administering to said mammal a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of claim 1.

8. The method of claim 7, wherein said mammal is a primate, equine, canine or feline.

9. The method of claim 7, wherein said mammal is a human.

10. The method of claim 7, wherein said compound is administered orally.

11. The method of claim 7, wherein said compound is administered intravenously.

12. A method of treating a mammal suffering from addiction, anxiety, depression, sexual dysfunction, hypertension, migraine, Alzheimer's disease, obesity, emesis, psychosis, analgesia, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, restless leg syndrome,sleeping disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, irritable bowel syndrome, premature ejaculation, menstrual dysphoria syndrome, urinary incontinence, inflammatory pain, neuropathic pain, Leschye-Nyhane disease, Wilson's disease, orTourette's syndrome, comprising the step of: administering to said mammal a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of claim 2.

13. The method of claim 12, wherein said mammal is a primate, equine, canine or feline.

14. The method of claim 12, wherein said mammal is a human.

15. The method of claim 12, wherein said compound is administered orally.

16. The method of claim 12, wherein said compound is administered intravenously.
